Gas-liquid equilibrium rates, Ki = yi/xi

Gas-liquid equilibrium rates, Ki = yi/xi

Gas-liquid equilibrium rates, Ki = yi/xi

(OP)
Hello,

I need tabulated values of Ki = yi/xi for hydrocarbons (unspecified number -- the more I can get, the better) as function of pressure and temperature. There are nomographs like this one in Wikipedia. What I need is a table or set of tables with some (again, the more the better) of those values in numerical format.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

RE: Gas-liquid equilibrium rates, Ki = yi/xi

tables with Kvalues were common in old days,
my copy of API TDB includes a large collection,
you may find some data on GPSA chapter 25 "Equilibrium Ration (K) data"
Another possibility is to calculate kvalues yourself with a EOS,
details are shown on textbooks as The Properties of Gases adn Liiquids.
On the net you may find Excel pages with the code.

Hello, OldDoc;

Thanks for your reply. I don't think we have neither the API Standard nor the GPSA vade mecum in our local library, but there's a chance that I can find a copy of "The Properties of Gases adn Liquids". I will see. I will also look for Excel spreadsheets that might help me out with that.

Regards,

The GPSA engineering handbook is only $110 (download). Its a lot of "other stuff" but thats just the way it is.
